For competitive gamers who demand speed and responsiveness, every gram counts. With high-quality features designed for effortless movement, easy connectivity, and long-lasting gaming sessions, this is the gaming mouse built for players who want it all.

Weighing just 67 g, the Volyx's standout feature is without a doubt its ultra-lightweight design. Allowing for swift, responsive movement, it enables gamers to take full advantage of speed without compromising on performance. Coupled with a stylish cut-out housing, this PC gaming mouse adds a unique aesthetic touch to any setup.

Scyrox, by now, a well-known alternative to flagship gaming mice from the likes of Logitech and Razer, offering cheaper, often lighter, gaming mice with similar high-performance ambitions and top-tier internals. The Scyrox V12 series is no exception to that rule, with the V12L and V12M offering internals like the PixArt PAW Next I sensor alongside Kailh optical switches, with a 100 million-click MTBF, and a Nordic 54H20 MCU, with up to 8 kHz polling, and a magnetic scroll wheel encoder, for a starting price of $79.99. The Scyrox V12L and V12M will officially be available from November 2 on the Scyrox online store.

The V12L and V12 M are two variants of the same mouse shape in different sizes. The V12M, as you might imagine, is the smaller one of the two, which Scyrox recommends for gamers with hands measuring up to 190 mm, with the shell measuring in at 122 (L) × 62.69 (W) × 38.31 (H) with a weight of 49 g. Meanwhile, the V12L has dimensions of 125.96 (L) × 61.01 (W) × 39.85 (H) and a claimed 51 g weight. The V12 series mice are all symmetrical with a mild mid-hump design and slightly flared front and back, similar to Razer's Viper V4 Pro, which makes them suitable for just about any grip type, although particularly suited to a palm and claw grip, as we noted in our in-depth review of the Razer Viper V4 Pro. The V12 series is wireless, with a 2.4 GHz connection supported by a 250 mAh battery on both mice, although no battery life claims are made.

Built around the community's expectations for precise control, tactile quality, and convenient charging, the EM3 gaming mouse combines a lightweight body weighing about 56 g, a PAW3315 sensor, and up to a 1000 Hz polling rate with carbon-fiber-reinforced materials, flexible connectivity, and a magnetic charging dock. These elements bring gaming performance, refined feel, and everyday convenience into a single product.

Precision Tracking and Customization
The gaming mouse is powered by the PAW3315 sensor, supporting up to 16000 DPI for precise, consistent tracking. Polling rates of up to 1000 Hz are available in both wired and 2.4 GHz wireless modes, with four selectable levels available through the driver, giving the EM3 the responsiveness expected from a performance-focused gaming mouse. Further customization is available through the web-based Epomaker Hub and Epomaker Driver 3.0, where users can adjust functions including the Fire Key, button debounce, motion correction, and button response. For quick sensitivity changes, the physical DPI button also provides six DPI levels without the need to open the software.

Pulsar seems to be on a bit of a run in 2026, having already shown off a new X5 ergo gaming mouse and launched a new X2F CrazyLight fingertip mouse, but its latest announcement isn't an actual product launch, but rather a peek at what's to come for the brand. According to a new mini-documentary Pulsar published on its YouTube channel, it is working on a gaming mouse platform that would allow for dual sensors.

In the mini-doc, Pulsar explains that "innovation at the mechanical level has reached a realm where humans can no longer keep up," likely referring to the ever-increasing DPI and polling rate increases that we have seen gaming mouse companies brag about. As such, it is developing the dual-sensor system to allow users to better tailor their mouse inputs to their individual needs and movement patterns. The system basically combines sensor data from both sensors and calculates movement based on a pre-determined offset that can be set in software by a user. This theoretically allows the sensor to be placed anywhere on the bottom of the mouse.

It seems as though the mouse modding scene has been on a winning streak lately, with brands like Keychron publishing a catalogue of free 3D models of its mouse shells, and projects like Openmouse providing brand-agnostic, open-source mouse customization and remapping. The latest eye-catching project comes from a small 3D printing outfit called Unskilled Design, who recently introduced Mausstudio. Mausstudio is a work-in-progress custom mouse design tool that helps users design custom mouse shells for 3D printing.

As described in a recent demo on X, Mausstudio allows users to import an STL of an existing mouse PCB, define the positions of core features, like screw holes, switches, the scroll wheel, and sensor position, and then generate a shell around it using custom parameters. Currently, it supports custom dimensions for the basics, like width, length, and height, as well as more niche customizations, like left-handed side button placements, base structure (lightweight or solid), hump position, honeycomb cutouts for lightweight shells, and battery positioning.

Corsair (Nasdaq: CRSR), a leading global developer and manufacturer of high-performance gear and technology for gamers, content creators, and PC enthusiasts, today announced two special edition collections of officially licensed gaming peripherals made in partnership with CD Projekt Red. The Corsair x Cyberpunk 2077: Arasaka White Collection brings back last year's sought-after Arasaka Edition lineup in the megacorp's signature white and red aesthetic. The all-new Corsair x Cyberpunk: Edgerunners 2 Collection celebrates the new anime series from Studio TRIGGER and CD PROJEKT RED, now streaming on Netflix.

Last December, Corsair and CD Projekt Red marked the fifth anniversary of Cyberpunk 2077 with the Arasaka Edition Collection in black. Fans who missed it have been asking for another chance ever since. This year, they're spoiled for choice.

Darmoshark, the Chinese mouse maker previously responsible for the Darmoshark M9, a flagship-spec gaming mouse for gamers with big hands, has come out swinging at the likes of the new Pulsar X2F CrazyLight and G-Wolves Lupine II with the Air28. The new asymmetrical fingertip gaming mouse packs flagship-tier specs into a small shape optimized for a fingertip grip.

Much like the aforementioned G-Wolves Lupine II, the Darmoshark Air28 is an asymmetrical "ergo" fingertip mouse, and it comes in at a claimed 28 g, hence the name. Pricing is unclear as of the time of writing, but the brand has released the specs on its Bilibili page, revealing a PixArt PAW 3955 sensor and a Nordic 54L15 MCU, granting it 8 kHz polling, up to 30,000 DPI, 60 G acceleration, and 850 IPS tracking speed. The Air28 will also have optical mouse switches when it launches, although an exact launch date is as yet unclear. When it launches, it will feature both 2.4 GHz wireless and USB Type-C wired connectivity.

Corsair has officially updated its Sabre V3 Pro mouse line-up with the PureVector series, a new partnership with Aimlabs that the brand claims can reduce aiming and correction time by as much as 33%. The PureVector nomenclature denotes a new tech developed by Corsair and Aimlabs that helps gamers optimize directional DPI to tune their mouse sensor for their own aiming style. The idea is that players would play through a calibration sequence inside Aimlabs while PureVector gathers data on their specific weak points and movement patterns, which the software will then use to build a custom DPI table based on movement direction, and then flash that directional DPI map to the mouse's firmware.

The new tech comes preloaded on six new Sabre v3 Pro PureVector models, spanning three materials and two distinct shapes. The Sabre v3 Pro PureVector series offers both a symmetrical shape—measuring 122.9 (L) × 64.1 (W) × 38.8 mm (H)—which is based on the Sabre v2 shape that launched in late 2025, and a new right-handed ergonomic shape that measures in at 125 (L) × 67.5 (W) × 44 (H) mm. Both shapes are available from Corsair with a shell made of regular ABS (Ultralight model, $179.99), carbon fiber (CF model, $229.99), and magnesium (MG model, $199.99), with the latter featuring cutouts in the top of the shell for weight reduction.

High-performance gaming peripheral brand ATTACK SHARK today announced the upcoming release of the R5 TURBO. This next-generation flagship wireless gaming mouse builds on the R5 ULTRA's success with upgraded hardware, dual 8K connectivity, a design optimized for precision control, and a new Dune colorway, alongside classic black and white options.

Gavin Cheng, CEO and Co-Founder of ATTACK SHARK"Following the strong market response to the R5 ULTRA, we pushed further to deliver even greater precision and speed. The R5 TURBO represents our continued commitment to give competitive players the edge they need to perform at their best."

ATK has officially announced its latest collaboration: Pikachu-flavored versions of its Blazing Sky F1 V3 lightweight wireless gaming mouse and its RS7 Air Hall effect gaming keyboard. Both products have already been announced in China, but the official launch date is October 20, and an international launch appears to be a way out. The collaboration is an official deal with Game Freak and Nintendo, and the F1 V3 Pikachu Edition is listed as having a launch price of CNY 369 ($55 converted), with a regular MSRP of CNY 419 ($63 converted). The RS7 Air Pikachu edition will launch at CNY 399 ($60 converted), with an official MSRP of CNY 449 ($67 converted).

The ATK F1 V3 uses the same small-medium claw and palm grip-optimized shape as the F1 V3 Ultimate+, meaning it measures in at 118.2 × 62.4 × 38.8 mm, but it weighs in at 41 g ±3 g, which is 10% heavier than the Ultimate+, and it has the same PixArt PAW 3955 Master sensor and Nordic 54LM20 MCU as the original mouse. ATK claims that those internals afford the mouse a click latency of just 0.174 ms, and ATK claims a wireless battery life of 300 hours at 1 kHz polling, despite the relatively small 300 mAh battery. The F1 V3 can connect to the PC via both USB Type-C and via 2.4 GHz with up to 8 kHz polling over both connections. The clicks use ATK's custom optical switches, while the scroll wheel uses a TTC Gold encoder.

Razer only just released the Viper V4 Pro [read the TechPowerUp review here] and DeathAdder V4 Pro [review here], but it seems as though the PC gaming OEM isn't stopping there, with new images posted to X by @jakeufps and @kazeslvt revealing new models of both the Viper V4 Pro and DeathAdder V4 Pro.

According to the leakers, there will be at least three new mice coming out of Razer in the upcoming weeks: carbon fiber Viper and DeathAdder V4 Pros and a purple Viper V4 pro. Allegedly, the carbon fiber variants of the new Viper and DeathAdder V4 Pro mice will come with more than just a new shell material, since the DeathAdder V4 Pro will also be getting the new Focus Pro 50K Gen-3 sensor that's present in the Viper V4 Pro, along with improved battery life.

After announcing the Keychron G6 HE as its latest wireless gaming mouse, Keychron has officially made the new Hall effect gaming mouse available for pre-order and finally divulged the mouse's entire spec sheet and features list. The G6 HE is a 49 g wireless gaming mouse with a symmetrical shape, flagship internals—a PixArt PAW 3955 sensor and Nordic 54LM20A MCU with 8 kHz polling—and hybrid MagOpt Hall effect/Optical switches with adjustable actuation and Rapid Trigger functionality. The official pre-order is now live on Keychron's online shop, with pricing starting at $89.99 for the swappable battery version and $74.99 for the built-in battery version, which is seemingly not yet available. While pre-orders are open already, shipping is only expected to start in late November.

The Keychron G6 HE weighs in at a respectable 49 g in wireless mode with the swappable battery installed, but that weight can be reduced to 41 g if run in wired mode. However, Keychron also includes two optional weight blocks for tuning the mouse to 56 g or 66 g, which may be preferred by some gamers for stability purposes. If you're looking for the lightest possible version of the G6 HE, the version with the built-in battery comes in at a svelte 42 g. The G6 HE measures in at 123.7 (l) × 63 (w) × 41 (h) mm, and it has a similar shape to the Logitech G Pro X mice. The shell is available in five frosted translucent colorways—lavender, mint, pink, ice, and smoke—as well as solid black and white. The main clicks feature 0.65 mm of total travel with 11 steps of actuation adjustment and a 100 million-click MTBF rating. It also features a 24-step optical scroll wheel and Keychron's new Zephyr-based ZGM open-source mouse firmware.

Razer, the leading global lifestyle brand for gamers, today announced the launch of the Razer Basilisk V4 Pro, the latest evolution of its iconic ergonomic gaming mouse, together with the Razer Mouse Dock V2 Pro wireless charging dock.

The Basilisk V4 Pro keeps the ergonomic shape players trust and delivers key upgrades, from 14 customizable controls and the new Razer HyperScroll Tilt Wheel Gen-2 to the Razer Focus Pro 50K Optical Sensor Gen-3, and HyperSpeed Wireless Gen-2.

8BitDo has carved out a niche for itself with its Xbox game collaborations, with the recent Tomb Raider 30th Anniversary Collection controllers being just one example. Now, the peripheral maker has officially revealed that its latest collaboration will see the launch of a Gears of War: E-Day Retro Mechanical Keyboard and Retro R8 gaming mouse. The Retro 87 keyboard is available for pre-order for $119.99, and the Retro R8 Mouse is available for $59.99, but both are expected to start shipping on October 30.

The Gears of War: E-Day Retro Mechanical keyboard is the brand's 87-key variant, which features a classic TKL layout with three additional buttons on the top edge next to the tactile connectivity and volume dials. The keyboard itself is made from an opaque black ABS, and it features an E-Day-themed design with translucent red keycaps—presumably polycarbonate, but material is specified—in an MDA-like profile, giving the keyboard something of a unique look, compared to plain Cherry or OEM profile keycaps. The keyboard has north-facing per-key RGB backlighting, and it is compatible with 8BitDo's Ultimate Software 2.0 for Windows.

Following on the launch of the ATK Blazing Sky Phantom, ATK has officially launched the Dragonfly A9 Ultimate+, a new wireless gaming mouse that combines flagship internals with convenient wireless charging capabilities. The A9 Ultimate+ uses the same symmetrical shape as previous Dragonfly A9 mice, measuring in at 125 × 63.5 × 40 mm, and featuring accommodations like curved side walls for better grip and an "all-new Nano coating." The mouse will weigh in at a claimed 55 g ±3 g, with the final weight depending on whether or not buyers use the included dot skates of the conventional feet instead.

The headline feature of the A9 Ultimate+ mouse is its magnetic charging dock that adds convenience to the wireless mouse experience. While ATK claims that the 500 mAh battery should deliver up to 350 hours on a single charge (at 1 kHz polling), the wireless dock that comes with the A9 Ultimate+ also doubles as a magnetic charging station. The Dragonfly A9 Ultimate+ is powered by a PixArt PAW 3955 Master sensor and Nordic 54L-series MCU, and it will have ATK's own SwiftLight optical switches, which should reduce latency and make the switches more durable. ATK claims click latency on the Dragonfly A9 Ultimate to be as low as 0.181 ms in 8 kHz polling mode. The ATK Dragonfly A9 Ultimate+ Magnetic Charging Edition is currently available for $69.98 on ATK's online store during a 10-day launch discount, and the official MSRP is $94.98.

Not too long ago, Epomaker started expanding its gaming peripherals line-up beyond the usual mechanical and analogue keyboards, with gaming mice being one of the company's new categories. The EM3 is Epomaker's latest addition to its gaming mouse line-up, and it has just shown off the mouse in a new official unboxing livestream and published the full specs ahead of the mouse's actual launch. The actual launch pricing of the EM3 has yet to be announced, but the product page and the mouse specs suggest it will be on the cheaper side. At 56 g, it won't be the lightest mouse around, but it might have a reasonable value proposition if the price is low enough.

The EM3 will have an ABS-carbon fiber composite shell and a symmetrical shape that measures in at 121.2 × 63.9 × 37.3 mm. It will have two programmable side buttons, and the main mouse clicks will be Huano Blue Shell White Dot switches, while the scroll wheel will have an F-switch encoder. According to the product page, the Epomaker EM3 will have a PixArt PAW 3315 sensor, which will limit the mouse to just 1 kHz polling rate, up to 16,000 DPI sensitivity, and 30 G acceleration. In Epomaker's livestream, the presenter describes the mouse's coating as being "slightly rough," and notes that it has good grip.

With the culmination of the brand's 25th anniversary, SteelSeries, the global leader in premium gaming and esports peripherals, today unveils a new generation of two of its most iconic mouse franchises: the Sensei Pro and Rival Pro Series.

While 8K is all the rage, gamers can't necessarily take full advantage of 8K polling consistently because there is significant congestion on the 2.4 GHz highway, and 8K polling itself is power-hungry. Similar to the 5G mobile network wars, different brands claim to have the fastest network and best coverage, but with different metrics and implementations, making it hard to understand. The truth is, 8K polling is only as fast as the signal behind it, and the 2.4 GHz band that nearly every wireless mouse relies on is congested with headsets, keyboards, phones, and every other device in the area, all fighting for the same spectrum. Ultimately, it all comes down to performance.

Along with a slew of other new gaming mice from the likes of Pulsar, Teevolution has officially unveiled the upcoming Kira wireless gaming mouse, which looks to be a revival of the Logitech G303 shape. The Kira is slated to launch in Q1 2027, but no official release date has been shared yet.

The early pre-production unit shown off at the Tokyo Game Show, and shared by @jakeufps on X, appears to feature a few changes from the old G303 shape, like smaller side buttons with more distinct separation and smoother edges along the back tapered portion, but it closely follows the very niche shape that has a fan following but has not received a hardware update in almost five years.

G-Wolves, maker of the Fenrir—which helped popularize the idea of the ultra-light fingertip gaming mouse—has officially announced that pre-orders for its next ultra-light gaming mouse, the Lupine II, will start on September 18. The actual shape of the mouse is still unknown, beyond a top-down silhouette image that confirms a right-handed asymmetrical shape designed for a fingertip grip—seemingly a revision of the Fenrir Asym pictured below, with a top that slopes down to the right—but the Lupine II will officially start selling at $109 for Early Bird pre-orders, $134 for the next round of pre-orders, and $159.

Despite the general mystery surrounding the shape, there is some information available about the Lupine II. For starters, it seems as though it will be available in only black and gray colorways at the time of writing. The spec sheet also confirms that the Lupine II will measure in at 65.38 × 30.27 × 59.95 mm (L × H × W). The promotional imagery on the pre-order page also confirms that the Lupine II will be based on the new PixArt PAW 3955 sensor and a Nordic 54L sensor, and that the mouse will weigh in at 22.7 g, which is less than half of the weight of a lot of full-sized mice that are already considered lightweight.

At the Tokyo Game Show, Pulsar has shown off the X5, a new lightweight ergonomic gaming mouse that appears to be designed for gamers with large hands that still want something reasonably lightweight and usable as a daily driver in addition to fast-paced gaming use cases. The mouse shell itself features a right-hand-biased ergonomic mouse with a large thumb shelf and a mid-hump design that's slightly more aggressive than something like the Keychron M7 8K but not quite as aggressive as the Logitech MX Master 4.

Thanks to hands-on photos shared by @jakeufps on X, the Pulsar X5 will weigh around 62 g. He also confirmed that the mouse is on the large side, which has been corroborated by other influencers and journalists at the event, and that the X5 will have an open bottom design in order to reduce weight. The sides and top will still be solid, and the X5 will also feature an extra side-mounted thumb button in addition to the two standard back and forward buttons usually mounted on the side.

WLMouse has officially revealed its Beast X2 wireless gaming mouse, which was designed in collaboration with notable League of Legends Invictus e-sports team member, TheShy. The new Beast X2 will come in a number of different sizes and four color variations, ranging from 41 g to 48 g, depending on the size of the mouse. Judging by the weight figures cited in the teaser, it does not seem as though the Beast X2 will have the same side design variations that were present in the first generation, instead only offering solid side walls with a perforated top. The Beast X2 series will only officially launch on October 8, and pricing has not yet been announced, but WLMouse has shared a list of internal upgrades and specs to expect from the update.

As you'd likely expect from a flagship magnesium gaming mouse, the Beast X2 will have an updated PixArt PAW 3955 HS sensor, which is WLMouse's customized version of the PAW 3955, paired with a Nordic 54LM20 MCU. The main clicks will be Omron optical switches—so no analogue input tech here—and it will use a Raesha optical encoder, which should be more precise and durable than a regular mechanical encoder. It will be capable of 8 kHz polling over both the wired and wireless connections, and it will have the same Razer Viper V4 Pro-like profile as the Beast X first-gen.

Wallhack has been teasing its M-001 wireless gaming mouse for some time, but it hasn't revealed much of what to expect from the new peripheral when it launches. However, Wallhack has now officially announced the M-001's release date and pricing, and provided a full spec sheet for the new mouse. The official launch date is slated for September 21, and one of the most notable facts that was previously unknown is that the mouse will have a magnesium shell. Despite the cast metal shell, M-001 will still weigh in at a relatively lightweight 53 g.

The internals are also premium, with the M-001 relying on a PixArt PAW 3950 sensor and a Nordic NRF54L15 MCU. This means it will be capable of 8 kHz polling, up to 30,000 DPI, and a claimed 2 ms wireless latency. As previously confirmed, the M-001 will have swappable batteries, and it will ship with two batteries included. We now also know that the batteries will be 250 mAh, which is more or less in-line with what other mouse makers are offering on similar MCU and sensor combinations. The M-001 will measure in at 120 × 64 × 39 mm and feature a right-handed symmetrical shape similar to Logitech's G Pro line-up, but with more sculpted sides.

Since the launch of the Logitech G Pro X2 Superstrike, there has been a flood of Hall effect and other analogue gaming mice that claim to offer similar performance and customization benefits, from Keychron's G6 HE to RAWM's budget-friendly Leviathan V4 GT. Now, it looks as though Attack Shark will be joining the fray with the new Mega B2, which was recently teased in a post on X.

While other manufacturers chasing Logitech's HITS system are using switches that have analogue input but still use a traditional click leaf to generate auditory and tactile feedback, that may not be the case with the Attack Shark Mega B2. The post is accompanied by text that reads "No metal. No fatigue. No friction," suggesting that there is no physical contact happening at all inside the switch, which would make it the only other major peripheral brand so far that has gone a similar route to Logitech.

It seems as though the Logitech G Pro X2 Superstrike opened the floodgates for a deluge of gaming mice with magnetic switches and all the benefits that come with the tech, like adjustable actuation distance and rapid trigger. The latest brand to join the magnetic mouse race is the keyboard maker, Everglide.

Revealed in a post on X, Everglide will be releasing a lightweight wireless gaming mouse that closely mimics likes of the Razer Viper series. The mouse will be available in both white and black colorways, and although not a lot is known about the mouse's internals, Everglide has confirmed the existence of magnetic switches and that it will weigh noticeably less than Logitech's magnetic mouse implementation.

XBAB Tech, a small mouse brand that started as an enthusiast project, has officially announced the pre-order availability date and pricing for the XA25, which it claims will be the lightest full-size gaming mouse on the market. The mouse shape closely mimics Logitech's G100s and the G305, both of which have a loyal following in the gaming community, and it will be a wired mouse, ditching the heavy battery in favor of an ultra-flex cable for lighter weight.

The basic specifications include an 8 kHz polling rate, a PixArt PAW 3950 sensor paired with a Nuvoton M483 MCU, Kailh Sword GM X switches, a TTC Dustproof Gold scroll wheel encoder, and Omron D2LS-21 side buttons. XBAB has reverse engineered and disabled features like DPI downshift and smoothing to reduce MCU processing and get the latency down as low as possible. The end result of the in-house testing is a claimed 3 µs firmware overhead.
